In the course, different psychological processes are highlighted which (may) influence the thinking and acting of persons.
The first focal point, "Wrong decisions", focuses on the basis of human decisions and which typical disturbing influences can stand in the way of a "good" decision.
The second focal point "conspiracy theories" focuses on the emergence and effect of false or distorted information and how these can (depending on communication and media) become complex "conspiracy scenarios".
The third focus, "cognitive distortions", focuses on cognitive processes and the possible disruptive influences or uncertainties to which they are subject.
